lynx-dev how do I _use_ the EDITTEXTAREA?

[Larry W. Virden]

I have this in my lynx.cfg:

KEYMAP:E:EDITTEXTAREA


I am at a web page where I want to edit a text area (in mail.yahoo.com).

Inside the text area, I press 
e
E
^E
^Ve
^VE
^V^E

and nothing happens - the trace log shows no traces.

If I am _outside_ the text area, lynx tells me that I need to be in
the text area to do the edit.  The html for the text area is:
<table cellpadding=1 cellspacing=1 border=0>
<tr>
<td colspan=3><textarea name=body rows=15 cols=70 wrap=virtual>

the text...


&gt;
&gt; </textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=4><font size=-1>
<input type=checkbox name=sig value=1 CHECKED>Use Signature
<input type=radio name=format value=plain checked>plain text <input type=radio
+name=format value=html >html tags allowed&nbsp; &nbsp;
<input type=submit name=HP value="HTML Preview">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<

Oh, another thing is that now the underlines showing the width of the table
cause the line to scroll off the page - I don't recall that being the
case previously.

In other words, where previously the lines looked like:

[20]____________________________________________________________________________
now they look like
[20]_______________________________________________________________________________
